Pathological yawning as a presenting symptom of brain stem ischaemia in two patients.

L Cattaneo1, L Cucurachi, E Chierici, G Pavesi.   

Abstract

Two cases of brain stem stroke involving the upper pons and the ponto-mesencephalic junction presented with transient excessive pathological yawning, associated with gait ataxia and in one subject with upper limb and facial hemiparesis. A causal relation is hypothesised between the brain stem lesion and pathological yawning, possibly related to denervation hypersensitivity of a putative brain stem yawn centre. Excessive yawning may herald brain stem ischaemia.
